Country:
District:
Park in the car park located below the Route de Sénanque, Place René Cassin, near the gendarmerie.
(S/E) Leave the car park, follow the road for about 50 metres, then turn right onto the small road (GR®6) which climbs steeply towards the Route de Sénanque.
(1) Turn left and follow this road for about 200 metres.
(2) Turn right onto Chemin de Granan, towards "Village des Bories" and "La Sénancole". Continue along this small tarmac road until you reach a T-junction, then turn right. Stay on this road, ignoring the various turnings on either side.
(3) At this point, a sign on the left indicates "chemin privé" (private road). Take the private road to the end, then take the small path that descends to the left under the property closed by a gate. This path leads to a small road that you take on the right to the village of Les Bories (possible visit).
(4) Take the path that starts at the exit of the village on the right under the boundary wall. This path leads to the Senancole valley, which you then follow northwards.
(5) Do not continue in the valley (the path becomes quite difficult further on), but leave it and take the good path on the left towards the hamlet of La Débroussède. Continue on this path, which climbs steeply above the valley, keeping to the right at each junction. You will reach the hamlet.
(6) Continue opposite (north-east) on the path marked by a large cairn towards Sénanque Abbey, which you will see overlooking the hamlet shortly afterwards. Walk along the right-hand side of the abbey.
(7) Leave the abbey via the small path that branches off to the right above the car park towards Gordes. This path leads to the Sénanque road, which you follow to the right for about 100 metres.
(8) Take the right path (GR®6) that descends towards Gordes. Join the Route de Sénanque and follow it for about 200 metres.
(1) Turn left, then left again at the end of the street to return to the car park where you started (S/E).
